Hello,

So far the only thing I can find is in the Personal Column of 'The New Zealand Herald' dated 18.4.1917. Philip Brljevich of Dairy Flat* wishing to make contact with M. Brljevich.

*Near Auckland.

From Papers Past website.........

There are only nine listings under Brljevich in the New Zealand "White Pages". Maybe you could consider going down that route?

Hi monke

Sorry, can't help at all with names of parents of Filip (or Philip) ... and can't see a marriage in NZ for this man either.   

The New Zealand electoral roll listings for Filip BRLJEVICH seem to indicate that perhaps he had no wife or family - i.e. he seems not to have been residing with anyone bearing the same surname.

Do have his NZ Naturalisation record, which I'll add next.

Hi monke

I see you had an earlier thread mentioning the name of Mate BRLJEVICH.

Is this likely to be the same person as "M. BRLJEVICH" mentioned in the newspaper item ??
